  Cause:
  
  Missing Parameter Definition: The error suggests that a required parameter for a specific entity (like a user, role, or authorization object) is not defined in the security descriptor.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the security settings or the way the security descriptors are set up in the system.
